- indet., regular leaf, pink large irregularly shaped beefsteak type fruits, 12-16 oz, some larger, meaty but also quite juicy with lots of seeds, excellent sweet flavor. Some variability in fruit shapes on the same plant - both heart-shaped and beefsteak shape are observed. One of the earliest large-fruited varieties to ripen in the suboptimal conditions of the summer of 2008. Very productive. Recommended as a reliable producer for cooler areas.
Seed source:

Year grown: 2008
Location: Zone 7b, PNW, Anmore, BC, Canada (760 ft above sea level)
B.C GI K
- 80-85 days, regular leaf, indeterminate. This is a new favourite of mine! Great sweet rich taste, excellent slicer, irregular fruit, all of mine were over 1lb, some getting up to 2lbs. This is one of the earliest largest fruited varieties I've ever grown, and it produces like crazy. 14lbs/plant.
